[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 829627, member: 50197"] As a piggyback on the other thread, I see you have these posted at 1000 pixels, and the metadata is in the file. (y) I notice that your flower picture was taken at F5.6 1/1000 sec ISO 100. These are all reasonable settings and the image is sharp. The cat picture (nice cat, by the way) was again, shot at F/22 with a high ISO of 9000 and a slower shutter speed of 1/200 compared to your bird photo. I'm beginning to wonder if you are choosing a wider aperture, but the lens is "stuck" on F/22. This image is likely in focus, but is not terribly sharp, probably due to camera shake with a 1/200 sec shutter speed. At 600mm I would probably choose a minimum of 1/500 sec handheld, unless I knew my camera's In Body Image Stabilization could handle lower, and my steady camera holding skills were up to a lower shutter speed.
